Terrorvision Video Programs Friday, June 4, 2004, 7:30 pm Friday, June 11, 2004, 7:30 pm Friday, June 18, 2004, 7:30 pm Exit Art 475 Tenth Avenue (at 36th St.) New York, NY (212) 966-7745 EAI presents a series of free public video programs as part of the exhibition Terrorvision at Exit Art. Terrorvision is a multidisciplinary arts project that examines how definitions of terror are shaped by individual and collective visions, experiences, memories and histories. This exhibition explores how personal, spiritual and physical events influence our notions of terror and how these unforgettable moments - and the cultural and media artifacts that represent them - have come to define our most extreme fears. Free public programs at Exit Art: Organized by Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI). The Wooster Group: Friday, June 4 at 7:30pm Featuring: Rhyme 'Em To Death, 1993; White Homeland Commando, 1992 Combining compelling theater with visual experimentation, this program dramatizes the use of terror by a fundamentalist state, and the workings of an extremist cell in modern New York. Martha Rosler: Friday, June 11 at 7:30pm Featuring: Domination and the Everyday, 1978; Secrets From the Street: No Disclosure, 1980; Chile on the Road to NAFTA, 1997. Rosler probes technologies used by the powerful to maintain their dominance; whether brutally through state violence, or subtly through enculturation. Peggy Ahwesh: Friday, June 18 at 7:30pm Featuring: 73 Suspect Words/Heaven's Gate, 2000-1; Strange Weather, 1993. Ahwesh traces responses to personal terrors, from self-destructiveness to violence against others.
